is this what made harry reid reverse his promise to bring this bill to the senate floor? >> you're right, alex, to describe this assault weapon ban proposal as the most ambitious. we always knew it was going to be an uphill fight. we always knew that the opponents were staunch, ruthless and relentless. and harry reid has done what may be the smart tactical move which is to separate the assault weapon ban so we can move forward on prohibitions against illegal trafficking, straw purchases, and also achieve a background check on all firearm sales as well as very likely a strengthening of those background checks by including information that is not right now in the data base. so there are measures that still can be considered. but dianne feinstein is right that these opponents have one -- at least an initial round. but not giving up hope or the fight. we can offer it as an amendment on the floor. >> so you talk about straw purchasing provisions, grant programs for school security, expansion of background checks. well, as you know, sir, the polls have shown overwhelming suppor
